Austrian Technical Officials Step it Up at the R&J Seminar

Mr. Gunter Plank, the head referee of the Austrian Muaythai Federation, which is fully recognised by the Austrian Ministry of Sport, conducted a course for Technical Officials which soon will become a part of Austrian, European and World Championships.

Mr. Plank said that, our aim is to raise the level of the referees of the Austrian Muaythai Federation and let them be part of such big events like European and World Championships under EMF and IFMA, as well as IOC patronised events; Martial Arts Games, World Games, FISU Championships. For new referees it’s a first step in their career and our President Mr. Felsberger gave us a clear guidance to step up the level of specialists in Austrian NF to represent Austria not only in the ring but also at all positions at IFMA and EMF events.

Austrian Muaythai Federation is a strong member of EMF and the World Championships in Sweden, Youth Championships in Thailand, and European Championships in Croatia have boosted the excitement of the muaythai community in Austria both among athletes and officials.
